How many foreign-born workers does each state have?
America’s job market is buoyant. It has seen 100 straight months of growth, according to Bloomberg, and 304,000 jobs were added in January. It’s a healthy playing field, and foreign-born workers made up 17.5% of it in 2018. In fact, America is only a leader in the tech world because of foreign workers, with 57% of tech employees in San Francisco Bay born abroad. But what percentage of foreign workers are there in every state? We looked at data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics and the American Community Survey to find out.
